Make Your Own St. Patrick's Day Projects
Grab a whole bunch of free SVG files for St. Patrick's Day and you can make all these fun projects! I've joined up with some of my creative friends to share these projects with you today. Each of us designed an SVG cut file and are showcasing one project we think you'll love.
I decided to go with a necklace because I personally don't wear a ton of green. In my house, we also like to be sneaky about the green we wear on St. Patrick's day.
Tradition has it, if you don't wear green, you get pinched, right? But if someone pinches you, and you are really wearing green, you get to pinch them back! Or so our household seems to think.
A necklace is the perfect, not-so-obviously bit of green you can wear for a variety of occasions… well after March 17th.

I've created two shamrock SVG files you can download here. One has a variety of layers you can use to mix and match to create all kinds of projects. The other SVG is a much more simple cut file designed specifically for this necklace. I've already created the final shapes and sliced out the circle for the necklace findings.
